Offense/Defense Balance and Kashmir Issue Between India and Pakistan Master’s Thesis 2019 30 ECTS Department of International Environment and Development studies (NORAGRIC) Offense/defense balance and Kashmir issue between India and Pakistan Nasar Saeed Master of Science in International Relations (IR) Abstract This study is conducted to determine the impact of Offense/defense balance (ODB) on the conflict between India and Pakistan. The dissertation consists of four different cases: the 1962 War between India and China, the 1971 Indo-Pak War, nuclear experiments by India and Pakistan in 1998 and the Kargil war of 1999. Two cases selected when war did break out and the other two cases when the situation was close to war, but the war did not break out. The dependent variable of the study is the outbreak of war and the independent variable is ODB. To measure ODB, the author adopted two methods that are subjective measure and objective measure. An objective measure is calculated using the Composite Index of National Capability (CINC) data, whereas subjective is analyzed by comparing the official’s statements passed by Pakistani and Indian officials before, during and after the war. The results of the study show that during the war of 1962 between China and India, Pakistan did not consider ODB, even though it was a golden chance for Pakistan to attack India. Instead, Pakistan favored peace in the region and refrained from attacking India. In 1971 war, Kashmir conflict was not the primary cause of war but indirectly Kashmir was playing a key role in the tension between Pakistan and India. In the case of 1998, India did the nuclear test just to limit the Pakistan role in the Kashmir. In response, Pakistan conducted nuclear tests of its own. Pakistan’s atomic experiments reflect that Pakistan was considering ODB favoring the defense. In the case of the 1999 Kargil War, the role of ODB was limited because the Kargil war was due to the secret operation of Pakistan paramilitary forces. Kashmir seems to be the bone of contention between India and Pakistan. The offense/defense balance has some explanatory power when it comes to the India-Pakistan relationship. However, there are also many other important factors. Keywords: ODB (offense/defense balance), military budget, defense spending, Kashmir conflict, and war 2 Acknowledgments I dedicate this work to my beloved father Ch. Noor Alam (Late) who died on 30th of April 2019 just few days before the deadline for submission of my thesis. I also dedicate this thesis to my wife and kids (Dua Fatima and M.

Conclusion References 6 Chapter 1 Introduction The offense/defense balance is one of the significant theories in International Relation, it is important in realism because it offers a way out of the conflicts caused by anarchy. According to Glaser and Kaufman, the offense/defense balance is "the ratio of the cost of the offensive forces the attacker requires to take territory to the cost of forces the defender has deployed" (1998, p. 44- 45). In international politics, it is considered an optimistic version of realism. Shiping Tang stated that offense/defense theory is very important in international politics and it is dominating thinking of many security and international relation theorists (2010, p. 213-214). Proponents of offense/defense theory argue that whenever defense has a competitive advantage over the offense, time major wars can usually be avoided. Moreover, through proper and carefully designed arms control measures, the chance of war can be further reduced. Conversely, if there is no way of separating between offensive and defensive weapons, arms races and conflict are likely. Offense/defense theory has been applied to clarify a number of topics, including alliance behavior, military doctrine, military rivalry, nuclear strategy, and conventional arms control. Van Evera stated Offense/defense applications are broad and also help to demonstrate the causes of World War I. It is applied to examine and understand causes and possible solutions for too many problems related to ethnic and civil war. Moreover, it has been used in defining foreign policies of innovative countries to carp US majestic policy. Most importantly, it has been used in determining and predicting political relations in the post-cold war. In addition to this to determine the size of independent states in the international system (2001). While offense/defense theory is popular, it has its detractors. They argue that the foundation of the theory is weak, underdeveloped, no agreed definition and measurement of the dependent variable (Lieber, 2005). Purpose of the Study While the offense/defense balance is popular in IR theory, it has rarely been tested empirically. Thus, the purpose of this dissertation is to determine the importance of offense/defense balance in the context of Kashmir conflict between India and Pakistan. Pakistan and India fought the number of battles on Kashmir conflict and still matter is yet to be resolved. The main reason due to which Kashmir issue is not settled is both countries claim over Kashmir as their part. On Kashmir issue, 7 numerous wars had been fought between Pakistan and India. Both countries claim Kashmir as part of them that’s why they always try to have control on Kashmir. Importance of Kashmir Conflict Kashmir is located between two nuclear countries (Pakistan and India) and both countries claim Kashmir to be their part. They fought many battles on the issue of Kashmir, including wars in 1947, 1965, 1971, and 1999. The conflict of Kashmir began when British Raj came to an end in India and United India was divided into two parts, Pakistan and India. According to the June plan normally known as Plan of 3rd June 1947 in which it was announced that Muslim majority areas would have to join Pakistan and other remaining areas would have to join India.

  • Kargil Operation 1999
    KARGIL OPERATION 1999 The Kargil War, also known as the Kargil conflict was an armed conflict between India and Pakistan that took place between May and July 1999 in the Kargil district of Kashmir and elsewhere along the Line of Control (LOC). In India, the conflict is also referred to as Operation Vijay which was the name of the Indian operation to clear the Kargil sector.The war is the most recent example of high-altitude warfare in mountainous terrain, and as such posed significant logistical problems for the combating sides.The cause of the war was the infiltration of Pakistani soldiers disguised as Kashmiri militants into positions on the Indian side of the LOC which serves as the border between the two states. During the initial stages of the war, Pakistan blamed the fighting entirely on independent Kashmiri insurgents, but documents left behind by casualties and later statements by Pakistan's Prime Minister and Chief of Army Staff showed involvement of Pakistani paramilitary forces led by General Ashraf Rashid. The Indian Army, later supported by the Indian Air Force, recaptured a majority of the positions on the Indian side of the LOC infiltrated by the Pakistani troops and militants. Facing international diplomatic opposition, the Pakistani forces withdrew from the remaining Indian positions along the LOC. There were three major phases to the Kargil War. First, Pakistan infiltrated forces into the Indian-controlled section of Kashmir and occupied strategic locations enabling it to bring NH1 within range of its artillery fire. The next stage consisted of India discovering the infiltration and mobilising forces to respond to it.

  • Fit India the Fit India Movement Is a Public Movement by the Government of India, Which Aims to Inspire Its Citizens to Become M
    Fit India The Fit India Movement is a public movement by the Government of India, which aims to inspire its citizens to become more physically active and fit. The launch event on National Sports Day, 29 August, had extensive media coverage with live broadcasts in many schools and colleges. Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged Indians to take up fitness as part of their daily lifestyle as he launched the Fit India movement on Thursday, saying the key to keeping India ahead is ‘healthy people, healthy family and healthy society’. People pledged to strengthen the movement and take it to every person in every household. During his speech, the Prime Minister also noted a decline in overall physical strength in an average Indian due to sedentary lifestyle. Through the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister appealed to the citizens to adapt to the physically active program. He also emphasized the physical benefits of practicing yoga and said that it should be an integral part of everyone’s routine. It gives the message that inactivity leads to lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, cardio- vascular complications, obesity, etc. and is a regular physical activity that is sports or a normal walk; it will help to remain disease free. A Poem towards Fit India All say that health is wealth What all we do for health? Do exercises to remain fit? So, we can get a benefit. So do yoga, exercises in school, As it doesn't require any tool. Make your daily workout cool, If you don't then you are a fool.

D. Research Scholar, Department of Political Science, Ravenshaw University, Cuttack. Abstract Relations between India and Pakistan have been complex and largely hostile due to a number of historical and political events. Relations between the two states have been defined by the violent partition of British India in 1947 which started the Kashmir conflict, and the numerous military conflicts fought between the two nations. Consequently, their relationship has been plagued by hostility and suspicion Both India and Pakistan hold different views regarding their conflict; to Pakistan it is Kashmir, where as for India it is Cross-border terrorism across the Line of Control (LOC), supported by Pakistan. The indo-Pakistan conflict has also hampered the development of economic and trade cooperation between them. Time is ripe when both the countries should try to resolve their differences and move towards peace and cooperation. The central objective of this paper is to discuss about the relations between India and Pakistan since the formation of both counties. And also discuss certain agreement/summit between two nations for normalising the situation. Finally the paper concludes with some suggestions for improving cordial relationship between India and Pakistan. Key words: cooperation, conflicts, relationship, summit, Scholarly Research Journal's is licensed Based on a work at www.srjis.com Introduction: After the dissolution of the British Raj in 1947, two new sovereign nations were formed—the Dominion of India and the Dominion of Pakistan.
